ajax request to get values of my drop-down
I setup a dialog box to select a related option within my table. I managed to create a list of the options which I want to display. I need to know how to enter the values from my list in the dropdown ...

This might not be the best way but I like it. I build the html line by line with a loop. You know the ID of your select box already so you just have to clear the innerHTML and then build each option out. You need to get to a point where you have all the information you want to include in the dropdown and then just make it with a loop. "Selection" would be your select/dropdown menu and you would find that by ID and assign it to the variable selection.
I run the next part in a loop that goes over my array of info and builds a select option for each one with this line plus a few others that pull the info from my returned JSON.
selection.innerHTML += "<option value=\"" + recordID + "\">" + name + ": " + description + "</option>";
Hopefully I'm understanding what you are wanting to do here.

What exactly is the issue you are having with it? Are you having trouble building the HTML select options form what is returned in DoQuery? I really only use JSON for this so I'm not great with xml.
There is a really nice Node.js SDK for Quickbase that I enjoy using that has made that easier as it returns JSON by default. I know you are pretty far into it but maybe it would help if you are also more comfortable with JSON. https://github.com/tflanagan/node-quickbase
